It says that it can't delete messages because they are read only. I looked in the /var/mail directory and everyone owns thier mail and has read and write permission. Any suggestions would be great. Oh and I can't seem to get XFree86 to download the sysinstall program always says unable to install and gives no reason but it seems like it can't find it. thanks wes
